Retro and vintage style photography has become extremely popular in the past years! People love photos that look ‘old-style’ and have a vintage look, because they create a nostalgic atmosphere, awaken special feelings and memories.
What is the difference between ‘retro’ and ‘vintage’? It is generally said that retro focuses on the style of the 1910s to 1930s, while vintage recalls the time period between the 1950s and 1980s. However, some people use these terms interchangeably.
